Family ID:  7 Keys To A Great Family

DAY 7 OF 7

7: Serve Together as a Family 

Intentionally creating great memories together as a family can be a constant source of joy, building confidence and values into each member of your family. Work to create a family environment that your family is proud to be a part of. Teach them great character by being a family that serves others together.  

This doesn’t have to be complicated. As an example, you could take your family to the dollar store and let your kids pick out 10-20 pairs of socks, small toothpaste tubes, toothbrushes, and some snacks. Then together as a family, make 10-20 little care packages and head downtown. When you find people in need, offer them a care package and ask if you can pray with them.  

Your family could volunteer for community service, serve at church, visit the elderly in a retirement community, or take all of their trick-or-treat candy to the children in a hospital. Whatever you choose, do it together, and give your kids every opportunity to see you serving others with joy. They’ll understand intuitively the things that you value as a family. The great memories you create together will become a permanent part of them, and you’ll see them living out the Word of God in their own lives.
